My Leukemia is in Complete Remission

This is the sender’s own account, sent to us after their prayer was carried in. It is not a promise that the same will happen for anyone else.

Dear Fr. Marco and your team,

A few months ago I was feeling desperate. My leukemia had returned after a transplant. I wrote a prayer on a card for my own healing and for strength for my family, and I sent it to you to be carried into St. Peter's. I kept the photo you sent on my bedside table. The journey has been long, but my latest bone marrow biopsy showed the cancer is gone. I am in complete molecular remission. My doctors are calling it remarkable. The fear is still there some days, but so is a deep sense of peace I didn't have before. I don't know what the future holds, but I am so grateful for this time. Thank you for carrying my prayer when I felt I couldn't carry it myself.

With thanks,
